So Here We are

Where?
Good question. We moved. It was a long a hard move, and after 6 years of staying in one place it was not easy to pack up and go. But as always moving was a cleansing experience, getting rid of things that need not be here and rethinking what is it that we are looking for in life.

Here we are. Still in NYC, but on an island now. Staten Island.  Not what we planned for , but happy to be here. Life is a mysterios thing and all the plans that we carried for so long and thought out so well came to meet reality, and reality made a way to show us what really needed to happen.

New things:
We are in a house (BIG plus NO NEIGHBOURS BELOW so we can play soccer in the living room. And we do)
We got a turtle and named her Gortenzia , the poor silly thing has no idea that she carries such a magnificent name

The house had a piano in it so now there are bits and pieces of music hanging about our daily life

As always the pictures are woth a thousand words, so here we go.

I am so happy for you!!!! Living in a house, in beautiful surroundings, as I can see! And feeling free!!!! That's great!
Who is that big little boy?:-D
Your children have grown up so quickly, Vita! Hope to hear from you again soon!(I miss your watercolours!)
P.S. We also have a turtle (6-7 years old.) I love him! And he loves me, I think...:)

For the first time ever we are contemplating leaving NY. Even though I am extremely content and very happy here. Why plan? What to plan for?
I don't know.

Your words here have given me a lot to think about.
